Hi all

Together with a group of other gardeners, we'd like to buy some glyphosate in bulk. Does anyone know an online source for this? The method to this madness is that it can be stored and shared among us and the costs kept down.

Cheers.

Please remeber though when buying chemicals make sure you are buying a proper name and make!!

Roundup is Glyphosate isn't it? Same stuff one cheaper than the other because no trade name, or am I smoking my socks again!

Roundup & Tumbleweed contain Glyphosate as the active ingredient, they are just the trade names (that they can copyright - Glphosate they can't ) Squirrel, so no, you are not smoking socks

Hi Nick, do you have shares or something in N A Kays, you're always recommending it. Next time i go to England i just must visit it. Is there one in, or near Darby as we are going for a few days at the end of the month.
Kind regards, Gabrielle.

I have ordered 5 llitres of Glyphosate from the link Piglet supplied but the price is nearer to £60 than £30. Will be sure to let you all know how it goes.

Hi Bramble,

No no connection at all unfortunaletley The only reason I recommend them Is that I have allways found them to give excellent service & a good price. I've sent cheques with an order & recieved it by return of post before now !

Good service like that deserves to be promoted. As to location, they are in Cumbria somewhere so a bit far from Derby
